0:00.0	Welcome to the Bill Barnwell show. I am Bill Barnwell. Yes, the idiot who predicted
0:11.0	that the Cowboys would win three games in the NFC playoffs and make it to the Super Bowl.
0:15.3	They didn't lose to the 49ers. They didn't get a chance to play the 49ers, but that is a
0:19.5	different conversation for a different day.
0:21.7	Today on the Bill Barnwell show, we are talking about the two Monday playoff games we saw up from one with the Bill Steelers move from Sunday.
0:30.7	And of course, the fiasco for Eagles fans that was Eagles Bucks on Monday night. Joining me to talk about that, a man who brave the elements is maybe the best way to put it,
0:44.5	who was in Kansas City for, as we talked about before we get on the air, a pretty bad
0:49.9	Chiefs Dolphins game.
0:51.3	Didn't even get to endure the elements for a classic, but a man who is
0:55.9	still thawing out from too long spent in negative 30 degree wind chill in Kansas City. It is the NFL

1:30.8	be stuck with terrible temperatures in the weeks to come. Get a ski mask. That's the one thing that I
1:36.1	regret so much that I didn't get a ski mask. I was like, oh, you know, like I get it. It's cold
1:43.0	and I'll be bumbled up. But like, does my face? Yes, your face needs to be covered up. Like any part of your body
1:48.3	that's exposed will start hurting so fast. I couldn't imagine what it must be like being like
1:55.1	just a random, you know, chiefs or dolphin staffer just standing on the sideline for for three
2:00.5	hours. Or like like you even saw
2:02.1	what happened with Andy Reid and his frozen mustache I mean it really was that cold I and even you
2:09.9	know the the the day and a half after that still in Kansas City it never really got past like minus 15
